Medical Xpress / A spine you can hold in your hands may help surgeons in the most challenging operations
According to a new study, 3D-printed spine models may support the work of spine surgeons, particularly in understanding highly complex cases and planning surgical procedures. The findings come from a study conducted at the ...
Phys.org / Quantum gravity research links continuous parameters to local operators within the theory itself
A researcher at Kyushu University and his collaborators have shown that continuous parameters in quantum gravity may not be freely adjustable "dials" from outside the theory, but rather arise from operators within the theory ...
Medical Xpress / Two patients with severe autoimmune disease remain relapse-free for over 15 years after stem cell transplant
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare autoimmune condition in which the body's own defenses turn against the optic nerves and spinal cord. This confusion leads to inflammation that can rob people of their ...
Phys.org / Corrected Pantheon+ analysis of supernovae challenges accelerating universe claim
Research led by the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, along with Professor Subir Sarkar from the University of Oxford, questions the widely accepted argument that the expansion rate of the universe is accelerating ...
Phys.org / White barn owls may use moonlight to startle prey
White barn owls are effective killing machines. They fly silently through the night air and swoop down on unsuspecting prey with their sharp talons. But they have something you would think goes against being a stealth predator: ...
Phys.org / Antarctica is offering 30 to 50 years' worth of warning on sea level rise, models suggest
Scientists predict that the next three to five decades provide a critical window to anticipate and plan for Antarctic ice loss and its contribution to sea level rise. Research published in Nature, led by Monash University ...
Phys.org / Bullet Cluster observations reopen dark matter debate with MOND-compatible explanation
The Bullet Cluster has so far been considered evidence of the existence of dark matter. An international team of researchers has now analyzed new data and current images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). According ...
Medical Xpress / Ten-year death risk 21 times higher for first time mothers who face care proceedings, analysis reveals
First-time mothers in England who face care proceedings are 21 times more likely to die within 10 years of the birth than mothers of the same age who don't experience this, finds an analysis of family court proceedings, published ...
Phys.org / Building more apartments won't ease housing crisis
Building more apartments will not solve Australia's housing affordability crisis unless policymakers address rising house prices and investor activity, new research shows. Australia's housing affordability crisis is being ...
Phys.org / Einstein Probe detects mysterious X-ray transient that doesn't fit any known class
Astronomers have reported the discovery of an unusual X-ray transient detected by the Einstein Probe that does not fit any known class of cosmic explosions. The paper presenting its multiwavelength analysis was published ...
Science X / Could less caffeine be the smarter performance enhancer? Scientists find a surprising sweet spot
Think of an athlete eyeing the finish line—could a single shot of caffeine be the difference between a podium finish and a personal best? For decades, runners and cyclists have treated the stimulant as a near-magical performance ...
Phys.org / Human sacrifice in Inca Empire may have been driven by political motives, not religion
Three decades ago, researchers working atop the Llullaillaco volcano, located on the border between Argentina and Chile, discovered exceptionally well-preserved remains. The find included the mummified bodies of three children ...
